Hi there, I hope your mom is feeling better soon...
My mother developed Lymphedema after cancer treatments. We were not able to use dandelion because they had her on fluid pills...so we did ginger baths and lymphatic massage. It worked well, and then once the fluids were down we went with hibiscus/peppermint tea in the evening, about an hour before massage.
It all worked well, but it would have been great if we could have done dandelion instead of the fluid pills the hospital was giving her. Good choice of herbs.
If you can do lymphatic massage, it really helps to flush the fluids through. It is like the lymph nodes are sleeping, and it wakes them up for a moment :)
thank you very much. sadly my mom passed away yesterday.
Oh, I am so sorry to hear...and I wish her the best journey <3
